Well, that's good to know. I havn't read back in this thread much, but any idea if there is work underway to fix the GPS issue? I did the Sense GPSCLRX workaround but now my GPS is back to broken....can't even get the GPS radio to turn on now.
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
I would, but I build a custom kernel. And every EVO I've tried (besides mine) to load up my built ROM, they boot loop or freeze.
[EVO 4G General] ins0dus:
Is there a way to see what the difference is between Each NIghtly?

I have been updating my nightlies ever since NIghtly #6

I just update it but don't know what im updating ?? like what is the difference B/W #29 and #30??

Is there a changelog?? but spoken in regular English not Code??
[EVO 4G General] timothydoanpham:
what they all mean to say is that the nightly that was built last night was just a build that gets built regardless. so the fixes aren't in the build. which is why they were asking for a build that someone built themselves that has the fix.
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Come on we'll be the judge of that!!just joking :-)
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
Before I left for work I started a build with the generic kernel. So tonight if there isn't an official build up when I get home ill upload it. It will be updated to 12:00PM EDT

Try Dialer One or Dialer2

[EVO 4G General] EliWay:
GO Contacts beats them both in my opinion. Looks a whole lot better, is constantly updated and has more features.
[EVO 4G General] SharkUW:
In stock do the reset and then make sure you get a lock with wifi off. Go back to cm and use GPS status to load new positioning data.
[EVO 4G General] m4rk0358:
Just looked that one up. Looks nice but no facebook integration from what I can tell.
[EVO 4G General] wrich73:
Completely agree! in addition to t9 dialing, it lets you manage your groups on the fly, something I couldn't find in any other dialer.
[EVO 4G General] JT man:
Thanks buddy!

+1. Also, I personally don't like the blue.

The changelog will never be "regular English" through any avenue. The changelog is mostly for those working on the code, we just get the luxury of seeing what was changed.

You do get a general understanding of what has changed by reading the changelog, but a basic understanding of the system is required to understand most things.
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
There's also a more high-level changelog of features added in the ROM itself.

Menu > Settings > Cyanogenmod Settings > System Settigns > View Changelog
[EVO 4G General] unit713:
Strange....I don't have facebook synced but my contacts pictures showed from facebook. Perhaps from the Facebook app itself.

Go SMS is my preference over Handcent.
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
I recommend using the link I used only because it differentiates the RSS feeds based on whether the change is a global CM change or a device specific (and will gladly filter out other devices, lowering the confusion).

View Changelog in-ROM is only as recent as the build you flashed and (due to the use of a "cat changelog.txt" or similar output mechanism) has lower legibility between changes (color/embold/emphasis/et al).

Its a small nitpick, but I like to believe that the coloring and the filtering helps with newer users and/or users unawares of the general changes.
[EVO 4G General] jessesse:
I know we are currently under a feature freeze, but I would love to see active downloads on my lockscreen ; )

(Sorry random thought)
[EVO 4G General] #Winning#:
Hey guys I have searched through XDA search (hit or miss sometimes) and also googled this issue and was just wondering if any of you could help me out with it... I usually use the Tiamat kernel just for better battery life etc but since the latest updates I have experienced constant reboots and I noticed that there were changed to HAVS. This would be my first thought as to the cause maybe the undervolting is too extreme for my phone. Does anyone know how to tweak the frequencies of HAVS?
[EVO 4G General] edisonalvarez:
Dialer one I think. Touch pal dialer is like miui rom. Haven't tried them like I said but they seem to be ok.
[EVO 4G General] rstuckmaier:
My only thought is Widget Locker. I don't know of a way to have active downloads as a widget but you can set it so you can still pull down the notification bar while in the lock screen.
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
I agree with what you're saying, but another aspect is "which changes are included?"

The changelog website includes every single change to the code. The in-Rom changelog presents more of a summary, that's all.

The poster specifically asked about a less-wordy changelog, so I was just pointing out that it's there.
[EVO 4G General] stankcheeze:
Looks like a lot of action on the changelog, maybe gearing up for the RC
[EVO 4G General] brofist:
Well, DrMac was saying it was going to be soon. I guess he was just a few days off.
[EVO 4G General] res1bxh3:
Possible Bug

I don't believe I've seen this come up yet and it's really small but none the less something that I've noticed. When downloading file, either via market or a browser download, the arrow in my notification bar does not have the line going threw it as its in progress. Now I have never used a Nexus S so I'm not ever sure if its supposed to do it but I believe when watching reviews I see it.
[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
It definitely used to do it in CM7 but it stopped at some point.

What was your rom flash and app install procedure? I find cm7 to be completely stable and free of crashes. Perhaps something in your process is causing issues.

[EVO 4G General] mbr1022:
Seems to be just USB charging from computer that's the problem. Briefly shows USB connected and charging then immediately goes away. Doesn't charge and I can't mount usb to copy files from computer.
[EVO 4G General] Fixter:
I'm getting a LOT and I mean of LOT of Roaming on this new RC2. I don't know what happened. But when I'm home it always throws me two or tree times a day a message on the notification bar about been on roaming. And this had never happend before, not even with the 8/14 nighty.
[EVO 4G General] jmlott:
I'm using ondemand. That's weird that you're not having the same issue. My friend is running 8/15 and seeing the same thing as me.
[EVO 4G General] fsiddique:
I have noticed that too. In my observation, setting the CPU governor to on-demand results in a lot more hopping between min and max versus setting the governor to interactive.
[EVO 4G General] berardi:
Oh - I haven't had that issue. My issue is when I use this one charger I had from another phone it says "USB debugging" even though it's not a computer, it's the wall and then it doesn't charge, whereas it used to charge it every night. Guess it's two separate issues.

Yeah that part is really annoying, I keep getting kicked to 1x where normally I had good 3g service
[EVO 4G General] xcopmanx2:
When I use ondemand, it seems to jump to maxfreq a lot more frequently than with interactive when the screen is on.
[EVO 4G General] -shift-:
same here. i've been dying to get some updates on .34 and i get a buttload this morning...

dude.... tell me about it.

lmao yea, man. it's really ok with me. i don't understand why people get all antsy about hurrying it up. all this stuff is a hobby for the devs.

this is weird. i'll run some tests throughout the day and confirm what you're seeing. i do use interactive more than ondemand, but i'll get back to you.
[EVO 4G General] jmlott:
Well, it seems like the consensus is that interactive > ondemand, so I will give that a shot and see what I get. I'll definitely check back in with results and see what you get as well.

Thanks all.

Edit: One thing I forgot to mention above: I noticed my load avg is never lower than 1.3. So something is definitely going on there. top output isnt very helpful in tracking it down:

User 2%, System 3%, IOW 0%, IRQ 0%
User 7 + Nice 0 + Sys 10 + Idle 289 + IOW 0 + IRQ 0 + SIRQ 0 = 306

[EVO 4G General] Fixter:
I knew I wasn't the only one with this problem. Damn.. Well.. Lets hope it gets fixed asap.
[EVO 4G General] theoner1:
Yes I have noticed the same with ondemand and 2.6.32-15 based kernel.

Kernel 2.6.29 seem to have better scaling with ondemand.
[EVO 4G General] berardi:
I'm wondering if it's because we don't have PRI Update but I'm not sure
[EVO 4G General] catpunt:
interesting, i noticed that since the 2.6.32 kernel my battery life is awesome and lasts forever with the screen off

but it certainly seems to drain quickly with the screen on

also i still can't get a gps lock, haven't been able to for about 2 weeks now with the nightly builds
[EVO 4G General] fldash:
Hmm, what's the difference in ondemand and interactive. Nothing on SetCPU documentation site about interactive scaling...

[EVO 4G General] berardi:
Even on other roms? I heard you could switch to another rom, update, switch back, and have the new one on CM6. I'm too lazy to do all that though lol just hoping they make a fix soon

[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
I would really love to know how to make a kernel update.zip. FASTBOOT is too much of a PITA. Anyone have any links to some guides?
[EVO 4G General] maxdamage2122:
Are you looking to flash a complete boot.img file or just a zImage file?
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
I usually compile a custom kernel while I'm compiling the ROM. I want to make an update.zip that changes the kernel like s-z or teamwin's. Just so I don't always have to recompile the entire ROM. Fastboot isn't always reliable for flashing the kernel.

This has all the commits up until 3/24 @ 12:00PM EDT. Doesn't look like there's going to be a build tonight either so I'm going to compile another build in a few minutes and post a link to it when I wake up.

Edit: Finish new build... but I'm leaving this one up just in case.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Thanks bud we appreciate it, I have it running now. I will say that if you're flashing over a nightly you may or may not get a boot loop. Its 3 am here so I'm pretty tired and took me a while to realize what I needed to do. If you're just flashing over a nightly wipe dalvik cache before you boot or it will not make it past the cm screen; went back into recovery and wiped it build is working as should now.
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
I'm compiling a new fresh build right now. And its not a fast process on a 1.6GHz single core laptop I use to tune my cars.
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Is there a ton of new(important) commits on top of the last build you compiled? I was thinking about just hanging on to your last one at least until rc3 hits.
[EVO 4G General] LancerEVA06:
The only real important one will be the inclusion of HDMI_OUT. Ill be running the build that's about finished until RC3 is official.

Here is the fresh build. For those of you that are having withdrawls... here you go. This includes all commits up until 3/25 @ 03:25:39EDT.

[EVO 4G General] erikivy:
Thanks for sharing this. I downloaded it but won't be able to flash it until later today or possibly tonight. Have you got it running yet? What can you tell us about the HDMI_OUT? Is it working as expected?
[EVO 4G General] dirkyd3rk:
Even if its baked into the kernel you still need the team win app to use it. Also shinzul updated the app and modules so cm7 now supports sound.
[EVO 4G General] timdsmith72:
Here is what I use to make a flashable zip when I compile my own kernels.

http://forum.savaged-zen.org/showth...T-HELPER-SZBuildImg-0.2-Automated-kernel-zips

I take no credit for it, just passing on information. It will work with this template:

https://github.com/koush/AnyKernel

Or it will work with, say... A Savaged Zen kernel that you download. You can use that as a template. The script above will just clean the template, copy your compiled kernel modules in along with the zImage. Then it'll zip it up and sign it. Then you flash away in recovery. You may need to make some tweaks to the updater-script depending on if you want to do anything special.

EDIT: By the way... The script above, I've found that it acts a little weird unless you unzip the kernel Template into the same directory as the script. So, make sure you have META-INF, kernel, and system directories in the same location as the script. Then when it asks for the directory with the kernel-zip template just enter "."

Without the quotes of course. It's a workaround but it works. I haven't had the time nor the inclination to try to fix it yet. (it's not my script, but I plan on eventually fixing it just for myself.)

Hope this helps.

Tim
[EVO 4G General] erikivy:

[EVO 4G General] -viperboy-:
I've used both (not the new .38 build of SZ, though) and Tiamat seems smoother to me and gets me a little bit better battery life. I'm going to wait until Tiamat is updated to .38 and see how it goes. Then I will swzp back to SZ and try their .38 build.

[EVO 4G General] blackroseMD1:
Flashed this a couple days ago, and I'm loving it so far. Usually, when I try one of their new builds, I end up going back to their 003 build, but with this one, I still had 30% battery left after 20 hours off the charger with moderate use (A lot of text messages, XDA app and a couple phone calls.)

I would definitely recommend it.

Running CM7 RC2. I have been running it for a few weeks now with no issues. Today, I tried to use the built in tethering, and while it worked, it took a good 3 minutes to actually start working. The computer would see the evo and connect to it, but would have no internet connection for about 3 minutes.

No big deal I thought, I'll just use Wireless Tether. Well, turns out that doesnt work for some reason. The log says:

Activating Wifi Interface...Failed

Setting ad-hoc mode...failed

Setting essid...Failed

Setting Channel...Failed

Enabling nat rules...Done

" Ip forwarding...Done

Tethering now running.

I went to their google code page, and they recommend hitting menu-settings-menu-reinstall binaries. When I click that, it says:

Could not install file - /data/data/android.tether/bin/tether

I have tried reinstalling the app, and downgrading to an older version. Any help?

Don't know if anybody knows or not, but I've downloaded all of the source and compiled the whole thing. Everything looks good, but I noticed that the ROMs you download from cyanogen are about 84 MB or so. However, the one I compiled is only about 80MB. I also noticed that the one the other user on here compiled is only about 80MB. Anybody know why? Just curious.... What's different?

[EVO 4G General] SantinoInc:
I got to say that I'm digging this whole nightly thing. If you are a fool like me who has to constantly mess around with his EVO and flash things then these Nightly builds are great. Pretty much every morning or so we can wake up and get our flashing fix out of the way w/o doing any harm to our setup.

Please pardon my ignorance but who actually makes the Nightly builds for the EVO? It's not Cyanogen himself is it? One thing I don't get with the Nightly builds is how sometimes things take a step backward. For example build 30 has problems with the camcorder but build 29 didn't (to my knowledge) I'm assuming that sometimes when you fix one problem it fuks something up somewhere else.

Oh yeah, one last question: Once Cyanogen releases a final build will there continue to be CM7 Nightly builds being made or will they cease?
[EVO 4G General] 12MaNy:
Cyanogen and toastcfh maintain the Supersonic nightlies.

Yes, the nightlies carry on after a stable build is released.
[EVO 4G General] rstuckmaier:
The nightlies are built by the "build bot" (who used to be public and you could see what he was doing but he suddenly went in to hiding).

As 12MaNy said, yes they continue after stable and in my opinion those are usually the best builds because all the base OS is finally out of the way so freaky tweaks and add-ons begin!
[EVO 4G General] Blitzpwnage:

[EVO 4G General] timtlm:
Actually cyanogen did remove a lot of wallpapers that they couldn't directly attribute rights for. I heard he got a cease and desist letter for one of the wallpapers because it was a modified image of someone elses original artwork. I think it was actually the controversial cm girls wallpaper because after it got removed, it hit forums and reddit, and I think it got noticed. He called out on twitter for more wallpapers.
[EVO 4G General] timdsmith72:
Aaaahhh... Thanks for that info!
[EVO 4G General] theundeadelvis:
Yes, often when you correct an issue with the code or add a feature, it can cause an issue with something else.

Sometimes people complain about the devs moving on to new features and not spending the time fixing issues with current features. My guess is, they may intentionally do this so they don't have to fix something twice. Why spend time to fix something when an added feature down the road may break it.
